Open Government Data
Who would have thought?
Our government in Vienna uses various blockchains (Ethereum, Bitcoin, Litecoin) to store timestamps & checksums of all Open Government Datasets that ever existed.
Such a perfect use case for Blockchain, transparency & modern government!
When you look up the resource, it leads to a data set about public toilets. This got me so excited that I cranked out an app that shows you public toilets around you while considering opening hours:
App: Public Toilets in Vienna
The app shows you all the toilets available near you. It pays close attention to opening hours and lets you filter out toilets that are currently closed or inaccessible.
Toilets that are wheelchair accessible are labelled as such. Toilets for people with disabilities that require a special “euro-key” are also clearly marked, so you won’t find yourself in front of a locked restroom.
In addition to nearby toilets, the app calculates walking time and the fastest route to get there.
